Description
Deter illegal dumping on private land with this clear warning sign. Unauthorised dumping is prosecuted under the Protection of the Environment Operations Act 1997 (NSW) and equivalent state legislation — penalties for corporations can exceed $1 million. Visible signage demonstrates that your property is monitored and the dumper was on notice. Supplied in Colorbond, polypropylene, and aluminium in 300×450 mm or 450×600 mm. Reflective Class 1 or 2 is recommended for roadside visibility, especially at night. Lamination extends life in exposed locations. Platinum Signs delivers Australia-wide with pre-drilled holes for fast installation. Trade customers benefit from bulk pricing and priority dispatch.
Final sign type, wording, size, placement and material depend on the site risk, project specification and applicable jurisdiction. Confirm the requirement with the relevant WHS adviser or regulator.

Frequently asked
Does a 'No Dumping' sign carry legal weight?
Yes — visible signage demonstrates that your property is monitored and the dumper was on notice, strengthening enforcement action under the POEO Act (NSW) or equivalent state legislation. It does not prevent dumping but supports prosecution if it occurs.
What reflective class for a roadside sign?
Reflective grades provide different visibility performance. Choose the grade required by the project specification and site conditions, and confirm any road, traffic or high-risk requirement with the relevant authority before ordering.
Should I add contact details or a phone number?
Yes — adding 'Report dumping: [your number]' or a council hotline encourages community reporting and deters offenders. Custom text is available at no extra cost on orders of 5+ units.
What size for a property entrance?
Available sizes are 300 x 450mm (Medium), 450 x 600mm (Large). Viewing-distance notes are a practical selection aid, not a substitute for checking the approach distance, lighting, mounting position, wording and site risk assessment.
How durable is Colorbond in coastal areas?
Colorbond is highly resistant to salt spray and UV degradation, making it ideal for coastal properties. Polypropylene is lighter but less durable; aluminium is also salt-resistant but may require occasional cleaning.
